Drake was not happy with the way his Rolling Stone article came out back in February. Whether it was an issue of Drizzy not quite grasping the concept of "off the record", or the journalist twisting his words, there were a couple quotes included that the rapper was not expecting to see. One in particular seemingly took jabs at both Kanye West and Fabolous, as Drake shared his thoughts on Yeezus: “There were some real questionable bars on there, like that ‘Swaghili’ line? Come on, man. Even Fabolous wouldn’t say some shit like that.”

While Kanye responded shortly thereafter, naturally blaming "the media" for turning artists against one another, Fabolous remained silent (which seemed uncharacteristic of the guy who at one point would've found the nearest studio upon reading the story).

Fab has finally broken his silence on the matter, revealing that Drake approached him and apologized for the situation. “He apologized that I was even brought into that whole mess," Fab told MTV. "I was shocked. Out of that conversation where they were talking about Jay and Kanye, for my name to come up in that mix, it definitely seemed like it was spoken up. It’s over, it’s under the bridge. I got a lot of respect for what Drake does and he’s expressed to me personally, so we move on from there.”
